Overweight Despots

Overweight Despots

Trump, Barr, & Pompeo: the obese three

Feast on oil stock and gorge on Greed

Meeting their ego power that serves to feed

The oligarchs and dictators a free

Pass of silence that perverts Liberty.

Where will their dark, serpentine path lead?

Who knows what books these Satan sifters read?

We can’t let lies charm us to wait & see.

We have lived through the dawn of destruction.

The structure of tyranny is soon complete.

Time’s clock ticks, we breathe the air of doom.

Climate justice needs a reconstruction.

We must gather a strong will to defeat

The beasts of denial, who dig earth’s tomb.
